Line up the 90º bend in each landing gear wire with the
predrilled holes in the landing gear block.
❑
Firmly push the wires into the holes. When aligned
properly, both wires should be flush with the bottom of the
fuselage.
❑
The landing gear wires are held in place using two nylon
landing gear straps. Position the straps equal distances from
the end of each wire.
❑
Use a pencil to mark the locations of the mounting screws.
☛
Make sure that the straps do not hang over the edges of
the wing saddle or the cowl opening.
❑
Remove the straps and drill 1/16" pilot holes into the fuselage at the locations you marked.
❑
Install the straps using four 2mm x 10mm wood screws.
Tighten the screws completely to secure the landing gear wires
into place.
